Mac Storage

loading…
Some folders couldn't be read
macOS privacy protection is blocking a few folders, so their sizes are missing.

Explorer

Your home folder, sized by real disk usage. Click a tile to zoom in, ⌘-click (or double-click) to reveal it in Finder.

Recommendations

Select items to build a cleanup script. Nothing is deleted by this dashboard.

Largest files

Over 300 MB, found while scanning your home folder.

Outside your home folder

Applications, system & tooling measured separately.

Nothing is deleted automatically — the dashboard only builds a script you review and run yourself. Sizes are allocated disk blocks; folders protected by macOS privacy settings may be under-reported.

Grant Full Disk Access

    

      
macOS protects folders like Desktop, Documents, Mail and
      Photos. Your browser can't read your disk — the local scanner does that, and macOS grants disk
      access to the app that launched it:

      
    
        
  1. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access.
    2. 
        
  2. Enable your terminal app (click + and add it from Applications if missing).
    3. 
        
  3. Fully quit and reopen that app — macOS applies the permission on restart.
    4. 
        
  4. Come back here and hit Rescan.
    5. 
      

      
No Terminal involved: run
      build_app.command once, then launch Mac Storage Dashboard.app — macOS will ask for access
      on behalf of the app itself instead. (Granting your browser Full Disk Access adds nothing here: browsers
      are sandboxed and never scan your disk.)

      
Without Full Disk Access the dashboard still works — blocked
      folders are simply skipped and shown as under-reported. Nothing leaves this Mac.

    

    

      
      
      
    

  






  

    
Delete selected items

    

      
These files will be permanently deleted from your disk — they do not go to Trash first.
      Caches marked “safe” regenerate on their own; “review” items may contain data you care about.
